Our Story

PNP Group are a leading Australian, multi-award winning, family-owned business that provides bespoke building and construction solutions and management

From compliance roots to award-winning SDA

Founded in 2014 by Eva and Marcus Pavlakis, PNP Group originally began as a compliance-focused business, supporting organisations with auditing, conformance and sector-specific quality assurance, particularly in aged care and disabilities services.

In 2019, recognising a significant gap in the delivery and quality of modifications and accessible housing, PNP Constructions was launched to offer purpose-built solutions in Complex Home Modifications and, later, Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA). From its inception, the construction division was guided by Marcus's extensive building experience, Eva's engineering expertise and the couple's shared compliance background, ensuring every project met clients' needs and expectations in addition to clinical and regulatory requirements.

Our Founding Ambassadors

Champions for accessibility, on and off the field

As captain of the Australian Steelers, Chris continues to lead the team on the world stage, most recently at the 2026 World Wheelchair Rugby Championship in Brazil.

Upon learning about the SDA B.O.O.T.S initiative this year I knew I had to go see it myself in person. I have been travelling the world for my sport now for 15 years and have stayed at varied accommodation with regards to accessibility. I was impressed with how much effort, thinking and collaboration had gone into each element of the units to ensure that residents could live their lives as independently as possible. The place looked like a regular new luxury apartment building until you started scanning the flat outdoor surfaces to access the whole compound in a chair, the barriers removed for everyday living with touch entry and height adjustable kitchen space, spacious layouts and a real community vibe with shared spaces to socialise. A perfect new start for someone seeking to take control of their life living with a disability. PNP Group have a core interest in giving people quality of life through universal design and I share their vision.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Giving back

Our impact goes way beyond housing — it's about building environments where people and dreams take flight.

Despite our growing profile, we stay grounded in local communities. We support community groups by partnering with local sporting clubs and endorsing athletes at all levels. The Apollo Apartments development stands not just as a high-standard property, but is symbolic of a broader vision — where housing meets dignity, choice, and social impact.

Paralympics Australia & the $10,000 Pledge

Our recent $10,000 donation for the Paralympians bound for Milan in 2026 is just one of the ways our efforts align with a larger national effort for accessibility for everyone.

The pledge is not a one-off gesture; it's a continuing commitment of support. For every property we design and build, the Pavlakis Family will commit $10,000 to Paralympics Australia or other local community organisations that align with our purpose and values.

Children's Cancer Institute & Local Communities

Giving back has also been a part of our DNA. Since 2018, we've proudly supported the Children's Cancer Institute through initiatives like CEO Dare to Cure and 86K for a Cure, funding vital research to move closer to a world where zero children die from cancer.

As a company, we stand alongside local communities by sponsoring schools, events, and emerging athletes — from backing our local softball stars to supporting International Women's Day galas.

Women in STEM

Eva is a strong advocate for women in STEM, committed to creating opportunities and encouraging the next generation of women to thrive in science, technology, engineering, and construction.

Whether it's fighting childhood cancer, empowering Paralympians, uplifting local talent, or advocating for women in STEM, our goal remains the same: to build a world where everyone has the chance to thrive.
